A Libyan military commander has started legal action against the UK government, which he claims was complicit in his illegal rendition and torture.
Abdel Hakim Belhaj said he and his wife were detained in Bangkok in 2004, then transferred to Abu Salim jail, Tripoli.
He said he was held there for six years and often tortured.
